Keyboard Shortcuts: Movement

Postby Bonnie » Sat Aug 21, 2010 9:21 am

I think that being able to move with the "wasd" buttons would make this game a lot easier to play. w=north, =a=west, s=south, d=east. (using the diagonal north, just like it is on the mini map).

Positive: It would allow for clicking on objects and moving to work together better.

Negative: It would be easier for players to create macros simpler.

Other possible solution: make path finding apply to hearthlings, similar to when you use milestones.

Macros are still simple to do without this.

I'd love WASD, but simply because I love fullkeyboard games...

Also, keyboard screen panning. I prefer moving with the mouse, but having to drag the cursor all over the place to peek forward is very annoying.

Use the fixed camera and the middle mouse button to fix it ahead of you.

Without wanting it permanently panned ahead, and if you change directions, yeah, but no.

Keyboard options are awesome, mice are gay.

I've actually been thinking of making a full-featured Vimperator-like Haven client.
